A function should be able to return an array as soon as I remove the
free() which should not be here...

Something like this?
---------------------------------
v[0] = "UN"; v[1] = 'DEUX';
x = 1; z= 3;
display("x = ", typeof(x), "\ny = ", typeof(y), "\nv = ", typeof(v), 
 "\nv0= ", typeof(v[0]), "\nv1= ", typeof(v[1]), "\n");
---------------------------------
$ nasl /tmp/d.nasl
x = int
y = undef
v = array
v0= string
v1= data
$ 
---------------------------------
